Postgraduate Diploma, Postgraduate Certificate, and Diploma – Postgraduate - Short Course Regulation
Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma, and Diploma – Postgraduate: Their Distinction, Credit Value and Award Title
Postgraduate Short Courses of a minimum of five days’ duration, are referred to as Diploma
– Postgraduate. This means that they are postgraduate credits, towards a Postgraduate
Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma. Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma
represent Programmes of Study, leading to Awards bearing their title prefixes. While we, refer
to our short studies, of 5 days to five weeks, as ‘Courses’, those with duration of 6 weeks and
more are labelled ‘Programmes’. Nevertheless, in line with popular usage, we often refer to
all study durations as ‘Courses’. Another mark of distinction, in this regard, is that participants
in a short course are referred to as ‘Delegates’, as opposed to the term ‘Students’, which is
confined to those studying a Postgraduate Programme.
Courses are of varying Credit-Values; some being Single-Credit, Double-Credit, Triple-Credit,
Quad-Credit, 5-Credit, etc. These short courses accumulate to Postgraduate Certificate, with
a total of 180 Credit-Hours (= 6 X 5-Day Courses or 3 X 10-Day Courses), or Postgraduate
Diploma, with a total of 360 Credit-Hours (= 12 X 5-Day Courses or 6 X 10-Day Courses).
Delegates studying courses of 5-7 days’ duration, equivalent to 30-42 Credit-Hours (Direct
Lecturer Contact), will, on successful assessment, receive the Diploma – Postgraduate
Award. This represents a single credit at Postgraduate Level. While 6-day and 7-day courses
also lead to a Diploma – Postgraduate, they accumulate 36 and 42 Credit Hours, respectively.

Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma, and Diploma – Postgraduate Assessment Requirement
Because of the intensive nature of our courses and programmes, assessment will largely be
in-course, adopting differing formats. These assessment formats include, but not limited to,
in-class tests, assignments, end of course examinations. Based on these assessments,
successful candidates will receive the Diploma – Postgraduate, Postgraduate Certificate, or
Postgraduate Diploma, as appropriate.
In the case of Diploma – Postgraduate, a minimum of 70% overall pass is expected. In order
to receive the Awards of Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma, candidates
must have accumulated at least the required minimum ‘Credit-Hours’, with a pass (of 70%
and above) in at least 70% of the courses taken.
Delegates and students who fail to achieve the requirement for Postgraduate Certificate,
Postgraduate Diploma, or Diploma - Postgraduate - will be given support for 2 re-submissions
for each course. Those delegates who fail to achieve the assessment requirement for the
Postgraduate Diploma or Diploma - Postgraduate - on 2 resubmissions, or those who elect
not to receive them, will be awarded the Certificate of Attendance and Participation.

Modes of Study and Duration of Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma Programmes
There are two delivery formats for Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma
Programmes, as follows:
1. Intensive Full-time (Classroom-Based) Mode, lasting 3 months for Postgraduate
Diploma, and 6 weeks for Postgraduate Certificate. These durations are based on six
hours’ lecturer-contact per day, five days (30 hours) per week, for Postgraduate
Diploma;
2. Video-Enhanced On-Line Mode. This interactive online mode lasts twenty (20)
weeks, for Postgraduate Diploma, and ten (10) weeks for Postgraduate Certificate.

Introducing Our Video-Enhanced Online Study Mode
In a move away from the traditional online courses and embracing recent developments in
technology-mediated distance education, HRODC Postgraduate Training Institute has
introduced a Video-Enhanced Online delivery. This Online mode of delivery is revolutionary
and, at the time of writing, unique to HRODC Postgraduate Training Institute.
You are taught as individuals, on a one-to-one or one-to-small-group basis. You see the tutor
face to-face, for the duration of your course. You will interact with the tutor, ask and address
questions; sit examinations in the presence of the tutor. It is as real as any face-to-face lecture
and seminar can be. Choose from a wide range of Diploma – Postgraduate Courses and an
increasing number of Specialist Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma
Programmes. You might also accumulate Postgraduate Short Courses, via this mode of study,
over a 6-year period, towards a Postgraduate Certificate or Postgraduate Diploma.
Key Features of Our Online Study: Video-Enhanced Online Mode
➢ The tutor meets the group and presents the course, via Video, in a similar way to its
classroom-based counterpart;
➢ All participants are able to see, and interact with, each other, and with the tutor;
➢ They watch and discuss the various video cases and demonstrations that form an
integral part of our delivery methodology;
➢ Their assessment is structured in the same way as it is done in a classroom setting;
➢ The Video-Enhanced Online mode of training usually starts on the 1st of each month,
with the cut-off date being the 20th of each month, for inclusion the following month;
➢ Its duration is twice as long as its classroom-based counterpart. For example, a 5-day
(30 Credit Hours) classroom-based course will last 10 days, in Video-Enhanced Online
mode. This calculation is based on 3 hours tuition per day, adhering to the Institute’s
required 30 Credit-Hours;
➢ The cost of the Video-Enhanced Online mode is 67% of similar classroom-based
courses;

➢ For example, a 5-day classroom-based course, which costs Five Thousand Pounds, is
only Three Thousand Three Hundred and Fifty Pounds (£3,350.00) in Video-Enhanced
Online Mode.
10-Week Video-Enhanced Online Postgraduate Certificate and 20-Week Video-Enhanced Online Postgraduate Diploma
You might study an Online Postgraduate Certificate or Online Postgraduate Diploma, in 10
and 20 weeks, respectively, in the comfort of your office or homes, through HRODC
Postgraduate Training Institute’s Video-Enhanced Online Delivery. We will deliver the 180
Credit-Hours and 360 Credit-Hours, in line with our regulation, through ‘Direct-Lecturer-
Contact’, within the stipulated timeframe. We aim to fit the tuition around your work, family
commitment and leisure, thereby enhancing your maintenance of an effective ‘work-study-life-
style balance’, at times convenient to you and your appointed tutor.
Cumulative Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma Courses
All short courses can accumulate to the required number of Credit-Hours, for the Postgraduate
Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma, over a six-year period from first registration and applies
to both general and specialist groupings. In this regard, it is important to note that short
courses vary in length, the minimum being 5 days (Diploma – Postgraduate) – equivalent to
30 Credit Hours, representing one credit, as is tabulated below.
On this basis, the definitive calculation on the Award requirement is based on the number of
hours studied (aggregate credit-value), rather than merely the number of credits achieved.
This approach is particularly useful when a student or delegate studies a mixture of courses
of different credit-values.
For those delegates choosing the accumulative route, it is advisable that at least one or two
credits be attempted each year. This will ensure that the required 180 Credit-Hours and 360
Credit-Hours, for the Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma, respectively, are

Exemplification of Accumulated Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma Award Titles

predetermined Award Titles. Where delegates do not follow a Specialism, for accumulation to
a Postgraduate Diploma, they will normally be Awarded a General Award, without any
Specialist Award Title. However, a Specialist Award will be given, where a delegate studies
